    This isn't really the same kind of bug. Those bugs made instructions emit the wrong answer, which is obviously really bad, and they're really rare. The bugs in the article make instructions take different amounts of time depending on what else the CPU has done recently, which isn't something anyone would notice except that by asking the kernel to do something and measuring the time to execute affected instructions, an attacker that only had usermode access could learn secrets that should only be available to the kernel.

    No you rude fuck. If i ask a simple question about a subject, let's say foraging as a I do that a lot. And it's wrong, it's friggin wrong. I'll ask about a specific plant. Full disclosure this is one of my things. 40 years at it. Ok? No big stretch to think I know a thing or two. So I ask about let's say, Japanese barberry. An invasive plant that is hated by many and rightly so at times. The question is , is it edible? The answer given was no. The truth is the opposite. It is edible. Hell there's recipes online for barberry jam. Now don't go just eating them though. Smart to test one or two leaves to see if an individual is allergic. That's not part of the answer, that's foraging 101. But I digress. The a.i was wrong and then argued about it until I pulled up all of the evidence. The a.i then admitted it was wrong, but who cares? It's not alive. Winning an argument with a.i is like beating oneself at poker. Another example I'll ask about intervals in music ( guitar teacher as my main profession now, as my passion for 48 years). It got the major scale intervals wrong. I asked ask if yogurt can replace eggs as a binding agent to one of them (can't remember which, apologies ) and it said no. That's a friggin home ec tip that's been around for at least a century People who give dissertations don't brag about it. Especially to make a point in a thread. It only makes one seem like a person who isn't confident in what they're saying so they drop a line that they feel will impress others. It doesn't Others experience is as important, vital and real as yours, regarding the answers given by a.i , but you'll brush it off because you feel that some how you have more insight than others. You dont. You just have more time to pour through a.i's mistakes to massage it to getting something close to what you want. That shows an abundance of time available. Which means you aren't doing the things I'm talking about. Or it means this is something you do for your job and it works for those specific needs . Which is fine, but your needs are not the world's. My need have been poorly met by that tool you spouse. Much like a rake won't help a guy digging a hole, a.i is the wrong tool for most jobs. Which means your opinion of my evaluation of a. I results is skewed because you don't value others experience, no matter how intelligent you are. And that is a sign of ignorance. I wish you a good day

    The point is... (almost) nobody is going to do that. Ask a layman what a SMTP is.

    it's only meant for temporary situations, 10 total days per year. I guess the idea is you'd use loaner PCs to access this while getting repairs done or before you've gotten a new PC. but yeah i kinda doubt there's a huge market for this kind of service.

    I'm surprised it isn't already illegal to install software on someone's phone without their consent or knowledge. Sounds like a form of property damage.
